EV Everywhere: Drive Electric Vermont PEV Case Study
Jim Francfort EV Roadmap 9Portland, OregonJuly 2016
INL/CON-16-39294This presentation does not contain any proprietary, confidential, or otherwise restricted information
DOE’s Case Study Objective• Provide an example of plug-in electric vehicle (PEV) support activities
beyond urban clusters • Demonstrate how small and medium-sized communities can increase
PEV uptake and charging infrastructure deployment in their regions• Small and midsize towns in the United States, with populations of
50,000 or less, are often ideal PEV communities due to their typically shorter driving distances
2
Study conducted by:Energetics, Vermont Energy Investment Corporation and Idaho National Laboratory
Drive Electric Vermont (DEV) Organization• Formed in 2012 via a MOU between
– State of Vermont Agency of Transportation– State of Vermont Agency of Natural Resources– State of Vermont Public Service Department– Vermont Energy Investment Corporation (VEIC) – (nonprofit)
3
• Increased use of electric transportation through policy development, education and outreach, and infrastructure development
DEV Goal
• Number of PEVs registered in the state• Availability of workplace and public charging infrastructure• Number of people aware of PEV options and considering them for
vehicle purchases• State and local policy support (e.g., building codes)
DEV Defined Measures of Success
Did DEV Obtain Their Goal? • Total PEV monthly registration growth 12.6 X in 42 months
4
PEV Registrations In High PEV Penetration Areas• Registrations not as high as some warm weather metro areas - BUT• PEV (battery electric vehicle (BEV) & plug-in hybrid electric vehicle
(PHEV)) registrations as percentage of all 2014 registered vehicles

DEV Program Research • Vermont Energy Investment Corporation surveyed a number of areas,
including :– Identified the primary awareness and interest mechanisms for
PEVs – The critical factors that ultimately influence the purchase of PEVs
and installation of charging infrastructure • Opinions were asked of over 1,000 PEV owners / leasers / enthusiasts
and over 80 EVSE site operators• Responses received from 71 PEV owners / leasers / enthusiasts and
23 charging site operators

Expanding PEV and EVSE Presence In Small To Mid-Size Communities
• State and Local Policy: – Initially focus on comprehensive regional plans
• Lays the foundation for PEVs and why they should be supported at the state and local levels
– Identify and target the support of high-level state officials• Central Hub and Point of Contact:
– Establish an umbrella organization over all PEV-related activities • Serves as single point-of-contact for technical support and
information • Early and Broad Stakeholder Involvement:
– Multiple stakeholders must be targeted and involved from the beginning of a PEV program to maximize
• Support, participation and ownership• Maximizes breadth of communication distribution channels
19
Expanding PEV and EVSE Presence: cont’d• Establish Tracking Mechanisms:
– Establish robust measures for tracking PEV sales and EVSE installations to gauge progress and encourage enthusiasm
• Auto Dealers: – Work with to ensure PEV and charging infrastructure awareness– Partner as much as possible to support their PEV sales, including
development of innovative incentive programs• EVSE Charging Infrastructure:
– Develop PEV charging infrastructure– It may initially require government and/or utility ratepayer support
given the current low profitability potential• Incentives: (Dollars are always nice)
– Aggressively pursue incentives and grants through a variety of sources (e.g., state, utilities, settlement funds, and foundations) to support the purchase of PEVs and installation of EVSE
20
Expanding PEV and EVSE Presence: cont’d• Outreach and Education:
– Develop website information, social media, advertising, and events
– Maximize leveraging of existing events (e.g., National Drive Electric Week) to reduce logistical costs
• Clean Cities and EV Everywhere: – Coordinate with and leverage the resources of state/local Clean
Cities Coalitions and EV Everywhere in order to:• Augment technical assistance, stakeholder identification and
participation, consumer education and outreach• Take advantage of incentives with a strong focus on
workplace charging• Cultural and Climatic Factors:
– Be cognizant of state and local cultural and climatic factors that may positively or negatively impact acceptance of PEVs and establishment of recharging infrastructure
21
DEV Program Future Plans in 2016• A new round of consumer/dealer incentives (Dollars are always nice)
– Greater quantities and at higher incentive levels, to be distributed on an as-needed basis to support more rapid use of available funds
• Continuation of the marketing campaign
– Placing greater emphasis on search engine optimization techniques to drive “organic” visits to the DEV website
• Utilization of a consumer survey to develop new campaign themes and measure the effectiveness of the distribution channels
